I Have Been with Phit-n-Phat For One Year - By Jen

I HAVE BEEN WITH PnP FOR ONE YEAR AND I HAVEN'T LOST ONE POUND!! 

Not exactly what you were expecting from a so-called successful PnP'er and a Moderator, huh?  But, it is true.  I weigh exactly the same as I did when I began my journey with Corinne on May 20, 2007.  Even though I have not lost pounds, I have lost lots of other things......about 10 or so inches to start with! I have lost a couple clothing sizes.  I have lost a squishy layer of fat on my belly. And my saggy booty is gone!!!  I'll take that over a couple of pounds any day!

That being said,  I have gained a few things with PnP, too....wonderful friends.  I feel like I have known some of these girls forever.  And ya'll, Corinne and I could talk all day long, but we have never met in person.  I have also gained so much strength and confidence.  I was the fat kid in school....chubby size 6X.  I know some of you remember that size, huh?  Size 6X doesn't have confidence.  The girl squatting herself silly has confidence, though!!  That is the girl I am now....I am strong and I know it!

That fat girl just isn't who I am anymore.  Sure Corinne has helped me reshape my body and clean up my eating, but she has helped me shed that fat girl.   That is the biggest thing I have lost......that nagging fat girl that likes to rear her ugly head when the going gets tough.  Now, I am not saying that fat girl doesn't try, but fat girl doesn't win anymore.

Scale stays the same, but I lose that fat girl????  I'll take it....gladly, gratefully, and thankfully.

Love the 'losing the saggy butt' comment. About 15 lbs ago hubby made a comment about how my butt was 'nicer' than before I put on weight. Well, somewhere between then and now I lost my voluptuous butt and ended up with a smaller, but saggy one. Next step - be like Jen and tone the butt up. Small and tight - I'll take that over voluptuous too.

Awesome read!  Thanx for sharing your thoughts and inner-most personal 6x issues. (yes, do relate) :)  This is so good to hear, and to hear the confidence in your voice makes the NSV (Non-scale victories) all the more important!

Jen- *YOU ROCK*!  Way to go, and I am SO glad you are a Pnper to help build up those around you all around the globe!  ;)

When I read this I thought I was reading my own mind!  Thanks for addressing this - I still have fat to lose and struggle with FGT - seeing your triumph gives me what I need to "keep on keeping on" and kickin' her to the CURB!

Thanks Jen! This is just wonderful! I love it! You are one of my friends; some day we will meet! :)

I have to say I have lost some weight w/ Corinne but I have gained much more than just that! :) You have given me a lot and for that THANK YOU!
